In an unusual episode of temporary sanity, the DOE has made Friday, Jan. 2 part of the next Christmas vacation. Previously they were going to have us go back on that Friday, but in a sudden instance of common sense, (a rare commodity in that agency), changed it so we don't go back until Monday, Jan. 5, giving us a 12-day break.
